Sorry if the last chapter wasn't so great. I MAY be editing that one.

These 'back to life' chapters are very hard to write, because everyone isn't just bouncing around being happy for Star being back. They all have their own responses that take a lot of energy to write, which is part of the reason I haven't been updating so much, the other being school.


Previously: "Why don't you go sleep with your girlfriend?" Kor groaned. On the bed right next to Kor'Is, was a tall, odd looking red headed girl wearing a purple skirt and tank top combo.

The Titans stood around their friends bed (except Kor'I who was sitting Indian style on the other bed) completely astonished with what they had done. "Are you sure that's-" Kor started to ask.

"That's her" Nightwing, Arsenal and Troia replied.

"You never knew her, Kor" Vic explained. "That's our little sister. That's her".

Raven placed her hands on the Tamaranean's forehead, her eyes glowed white as dark energy surrounded her hands. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos" the empath murmured.

The energy around Arella's daughter instantly faded as her eyes returned to their usual violet shade. "I performed a quick mind span" the daughter of the eighth devil explained. "And learned what to expect from her. When she wakes up, she'll think we saved her. Don't let her think that for longer then a few minutes. If she doesn't know she died-don't shudder like that Nightwing, it's what happened-and finds out through outside sources, she'll leave the Tower. And Slade will take advantage of that".

"That sounds about right" Donna murmured. "I mean when Diana. . .passed on. . .and came back as the Goddess of Truth. . .it wasn't pleasant to tell her what had happened".

"Robin". The low moan had come from the bed. The Titans quickly stared down at Starfire. "Wonder Girl. . ." Donna bit her lip as several of the others shuddered.

"Wing, maybe you should. . ." Cyborg trailed off as the Titans' leader went pale and nodded.

The other Titans started to exit the room as Cy opened his mouth. Kor ran back into the room and quickly pulled him out of it.

"If you make a Michael Jackson comment about him, I will kill you" the former Starfire hissed into his ear quietly. The man-machine nodded slowly as he was dragged into the main room.


"Sooo . . ." Gar Logan started.

"What now?" Raven nodded understandingly, almost reassuringly. "That's a good question."

"We help her" Donna continued. "No matter our own problems, Star's are bigger then ours now". Arsenal turned and grinned wickedly at the Amazonian warrior.

"You sure 'bout that, Princess? Star's a girl, and I'm pretty sure that if something like that was bigger then mine, Wing woulda noticed it by now". Troy rolled her eyes.

"You're disgusting". Then Diana's sister turned to face the rest of her friends. "Kor, are you alright?" she asked, noting the concerned look on her friends face. The other Titans turned to see the believed-to-be-Starfire, who seemed to be quite a bit paler then normal, her usual cocky expression vacant.

Very carefully, slowly and quietly, but still in plain sight of her teammates, the teen slid off the couch and walked out of the room.

"Umm. . .dude, what're you doing?" Gar asked, seemingly in awe of Kor's actions.

"The better question is why" Raven murmured once the powerhouse was probably out of ear shot. There was no point in riling her up, not when she seemed so. . .she wasn't sad. Morose was the word the empath quickly deemed appropriate for the situation.

The doors quickly slid open again and the Titans expected to see a darkly clad female burst into the room, but it was not to be. Nightwing collapsed on the floor, panting like he'd just escaped from hell. He'd been to hell and not become this depleted, which should've probably be signaling alarms in his teammates brains.

"Guys, something went wrong" he managed to choke out before spraying his guts out on the couch. The Titans stared at their leader, never before had they seen him this depleted.

The doors opened for a third time to reveal Cyborg talking to his on-again-off-again-girlfriend, Sarah Simms. "My baby!" he cried, running towards the couch.

Next Chapter: Nightwing's story! Kor's explanation!


I am sorry that it's been a while, but I'm sure that most of you understand the homework thing. Plus, I wrote this chapter about 50 times to make sure I got it right. Like I explained before, it's very hard to write these back-to-life scenes and keep the characters cannon.

rite4fun: Dick's going to have more of an issue when you find out what happened to him and why he thinks something went wrong. Plus we all know who's going to have to go find Kor'I, which won't be pretty.

sparklebluelemon: Not for long, dude.
